The Mighty BMW 335d Remap

Well itâ€™s been nearly one month

since Remaps UK took delivery of our new BMW E92 335d and we are mightily

impressed so far with this hot, sleek performer.

You canâ€™t deny that even with stock/standard settings on the ECU the BMW 335d is a force to be reckoned with, putting much more exotic vehicles to shame with itâ€™s awesome twin turbo 3.0 diesel engine power.

So what’s the story so far for the BMW 335d Remap â€¦.

In stock form, from the factory settings, we thought the 335d performed reasonably well, with a slight lag low down of the mark,Â great pull through the mid range and ever so slightly lacking at the top end of the rev range, but if were honest this was really being a bit picky!

The average figures for the BMW 335d, on the mpg and efficiency side were ranging from low 30â€™s for mixed driving and 38-41 whilst cruising. All in all a very respectable set of results from a vehicle producing a claimed 286bhp with stock settings from BMW.

So what next for the BMW 335d remap projectâ€¦.

We have just finished our first part of the project and started off with the custom written remap option we call â€˜the Blendâ€™. This style of upgrade we used on the 335d is a bespoke custom tune that gives the driver the best of both worlds, seeing a marked improvement in mpg and bhp, or the ‘best of both worlds’.

Bang for buck we think our remap option called the ‘blend’ is the best value for money remap option available so far!

So how did the BMW 335d perform after its Remap?

In one word astounding! Like the BMW 330d project we ran before, the difference between stock and â€˜the blendâ€™ remap option is fantastic. Zero lag, mid range punch is phenomenal pulling cleanly and strongly right through the rev range with no hint of a flat spot anywhere. Overall Very Very impressive!

MPG figures went up to 36-38 normal mixed driving and saw 48 mpg on motorway runs (we feel these are modest figures as when we tested the 335d we had -8 degrees!!) And all this from a car producing 325 bhp!

The remap option â€˜blendâ€™ on the 335d is perfectly placed and developed for everyday driving with a focus on increased performance without the sacrifice of reduced efficiency, this is a very hard thing to achieve and has taken a lot of work to get us there, but the results speak for themselves.

Needless to say, everybody fights for the 335d keys at the end of the working day!!

A Job well done so farâ€¦. but we have a lot more to do!

As we right this release we have just finished the fine tuning and development of the new performance fast road spec custom remap and have begun running the upgraded package on ourÂ BMW 335d today!

First impressions are simply stunning!

The VW 2.0 TDi Remap and Mercedes Benz 320 CDi Remap

Last month was certainly a busy one with remaps including a performance remap on a E320 cdi Mercedes Benz, a remap performance economy blend on a VW Passat 2.0 TDi Remap 140, a full performance remap on a Peugeot 206 GTi 180, A host of remaps for a VW Golf GTi 2.0 TFSi and VW Golf 2.0 TDi 140 & 170 bhp models.

VW 2.0 tdi remap & Mercedes Benz 320 CDi remap with Fantastic results

The Mercedes Benz E320 CDi gave back fantastic results showing a fantastic increase in bhp of 50!! Taking it to a whopping 272 bhp! The customer needless to say was over the moon with his new founded performance and his ability to keep up with the M3 on his weekly run back up the M6! Watch out for the speed cameras John!

Custom VW 2.0 TDi Remap

The economy/ performance remap on the VW Passat 2.0 TDi remap 140 bhp diesels always respond to our live custom remap well, great performance increase of 40 bhp and mpg figures showing an early increase of 6 mpg average. Customer reports of zero flat spots, incredibly smooth power delivery, much more drivable due to better engine and throttle response and a firmly pinned child in the baby seat!

The performance remap on the Peugeot 206 GTi 180 bhp was a great opportunity for us here at Remaps UK to really show of our tuning expertise on a normally aspirated highly tuned vehicle.

The results , needless to say were fantastic, the customer reported on how the car now felt like 3rd gear was now more like 2nd gear due to the increased throttle response and lively feel to the vehicle. With the Peugeot now pushing close to 200 bhp after the remap, itâ€™s certainly made an already quick car even quicker!

We certainly get to see a fair few VW Golfâ€™s here at Remaps UK and we most definitely enjoy tuning and remapping them. The VW Golf 2.0 TDi 140 bhp and VW Golf 2.0 TDi 170 bhp have fantastic results after weâ€™ve performed our remap magic on them!

The Â performance remap on the VW Golf 2.0 TDi 140 never fails to put a smile on the customers face, I think they are genuinely shocked by the difference, this particular customer couldnâ€™t afford the VW Golf 2.0 TDi 170 bhp version and loved the way it drove. After taking his newly remapped VW Golf 2.0 TDi 140 for a spin, on his return with the all too familiar big grin on his face said it all, with his new remap on the VW Golf 2.0 TDi 140 now pushing out 196 bhp he certainly wasnâ€™t thinking about the VW Golf 2.0 TDi 170 any more!

And finally the remap on the VW Golf Â GTi 2.0 TFSi DSG on a performance remap. We love the 2.0 TFSi, whether in the AudiÂ or the VW, this engine is truly astounding. With figures easily reaching 250 bhp this engine is heavily down tuned in standard form. The customer was shocked at the finished remap of the VW Golf Â GTi 2.0 TFSi DSG. He commented on the reduced turbo lag and mid range punch being unbelievable. He even gave us a call a week later claiming it was getting quicker by the day.

Many thanks to you all for your custom and also for allowing us to carry out our remap tuning upgrades on your vehicles, we wish you many happy miles of improved driving.
